Toward a Living Architecture? examines the emerging field of generative architecture and its nexus with computation, biology, and complexity. Based on Christina Cogdell's field research in architecture studios and biological labs, this book critiques generative architecture by e…
"The first book-length critique of the emerging field of generative architecture and its nexus with computation, biology, and complexity. Based on Christina Cogdel's field research in architecture studios and biological labs, this field-building book analyzes generative architec…

The book highlights the absence of a systematic process for problem-based biomimetic architectural design. While existing biomimetic design approaches are metaphorical and non-methodological, this book presents a cross-disciplinary bio-inspired design tool that for the first tim…

This book describes the detailed process behind the development of a comprehensive thermo-bio-architectural framework (the ThBA). This framework systematically connects the thermal performance requirements of a building to relevant solutions found in the natural world. This is t…
"The Routledge Companion to Biology in Art and Architecture collects thirty essays from a transdisciplinary array of experts on biology in art and architecture. The book presents a diversity of hybrid art-and-science thinking, revealing how science and culture are interwoven. Th…
When searching for genuinely sustainable building design and technology - designs that go beyond conventional sustainability to be truly restorative - we often find that nature got there first. Over 3.5 billion years of natural history have evolved innumerable examples of forms,…
